How do you perform an Estermann VF test with the VF machine? How do you instruct the patient for the test.
Main menu –> Show Test Library –> Specialty –> Binoc Estermann (px does with both eyes open)
This tests takes 5 minutes, and inform the patient similarly to other VF tests:
“This is a test of how well you can see across your visual field/entire range of vision”
“Spots will appear on the screen, some of these spots may appear brighter/darker, they can be closer or further away, and the time they appear can be different. If you see a spot I want you to press the button”
Where in sunix should you place BV testing results?
“In pupils” - Christine Nearchou
What are the following Medmont equivalents to the following Humphrey VF tests:
10-2
24-2
30-2
10-2 = macula 24-2 = central test 30-2 = glaucoma test
How do you send a letter through MEC?
In sunix: letter –> new px letter –> report to gp (usually) to generate a template
Complete template –> place eyecare letterhead in printer –> inform staff you are printing letter –> get supervisor to sign printed letter –> scan letter (front side up) to myscans
In consult room: images –> import the image –> email to uni-eyecare@unimelb.edu.au
Front desk: forward email to patient email from front desk with no name after “regards”
Topography result not showing up when trying to import images, even though it saved to myscans?
It’s the name. Import images only shows the top 6 recent images, however if you rename the file it will go to the bottom because it’s also alphabetical.
Can solve by putting AA at start of file or simply by not renaming the file.
How do you save topography results to my scans?
Print as pdf
How are topography scans taken?
Automatically as patient looks at target centre yellow circle.
When performing Visual fields, where is the trial lens set?
In a box to the left/behind on the table on left side of the room
How do you perform a Humphrey Visual Field at MEC? (4)
- Search for patient via ID or last name
- Enter details on right side of screen (incl distance prescription and trial lens used for near) - if relevant, also includes choosing type of test
- Give patient eyepatch with tissue to cover eye that’s not been tested
- Gaze initiation –> then when done –> start test (read instructions out from screen during this process for standardisation)
Should you use SITA faster when doing Humphrey VF testing?
No, generally not. SITA faster doesn’t have reliability indices like false negatives so is not a reliable test. Better off with SITA standard (or SITA fast if patient is having issues with long duration, e.g. fatigue I guess, elderly)
